Ook Neugarten even in de problemen:
Ian Khan, the driver aboard the #75 Perspective Porsche when the engine went bang explained the incident :
“It was a fresh race engine and going down Mulsanne it felt a little tight. I was taking it very gently keeping the revs down and suddenly it went boom’. I steered it towards an extinguisher post but the back end had caught fire. The automatic extinguisher went off and there was so much smoke in the car I couldn’t find the handle. The marshal opened the door for me.” The Perspective Porsche is just a little singed but with a fresh engine will be OK for the race. All three drivers are qualified and Nigel Smith is thinking of selecting a restaurant for this evening. (source: DSC.com)
